You welcomed me into this world
and christened me as special,
a precious soul of innocence
that you declared to always
love and protect.
What happened to the vows you gave?
The promises made?
Where is the aunt who took pride
in also being a godmother -
a figure to guide the way?
Look me in the eyes,
just like you did on that first
day you met me, and tell me
how you could ignore the
truth that screams behind them-
the truth deep down you know is there!
